Configuration
Š
LDAP Proxy User Password: Specify a password for the LDAP Proxy
user. By default, it is YaST-generated password.
IMPORTANT: You are recommended not to use the YaST-generated
default password. You must specify the password for the Proxy user.
Š
Verify LDAP Proxy User Password: Type the password for the LDAP
Proxy User again.
Š
LDAP Search Context Click Add , then specify an LDAP tree context to
be searched for users and provisioning them in to iFolder. For example,
o=acme, o=acme2, or o=acme3. If no context is specified, only the
iFolder Admin user is provisioned for services during the install.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the LDAP search context you have specified is
present in the LDAP server. If the LDAP search context is not present, the
iFolder installation fails.
Š
LDAP Naming Attribute: Select which LDAP attribute of the User
account to apply when authenticating users. Each user enters a
Username in this specified format at login time. Common Name (cn) is the
default and an e-mail address (e-mail) is the other option.
For example, if a user named John Smith has a common name of jsmith
and e-mail of john.smith@example.com, this field determines whether the
user enters jsmith or john.smith@example.com as the Username when
logging in to the iFolder server. This setting cannot be changed after the
install using the Web Admin console.
Š
Require a secure connection between the LDAP server and the
iFolder Server:
Select this option to establish a secure connection
between the LDAP server and the iFolder server. This option is selected
by default. If the LDAP server co-exists on the same machine as the
iFolder server, an administrator can disable SSL, which increases the
performance of LDAP authentications.
